Newcrest

justbrice · December 2016

I was just curious if anyone had problems with adding lots to the world. When I tried to add Newcrest Park and The Fitbox, the game would crash on me. I had to add one at a time, save, exit to the main menu, go back into Newcrest, add the other lot, save, exit to the main menu, and go back into Newcrest.

Hello
Are they the only two lots that you are having issues with when trying to add them to New Crest? Are you able to add other lots without issues?

I was having issues when trying to add other lots.

Hello
Try shutting down your computer completely. Then restart the computer, log into Origin, launch the game and see if you still have issues adding lots to Newcrest.
If the issues remain, try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game and then copy back the "options.ini" or " options " file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders from the desktop sims 4 folder

I was able to play it last night and it worked fine. It's weird that it was acting up. When I linked my One Drive account, it was fine, When I unlinked my One Drive account, it went crazy on me.

Hello
It is good that you are not having issues placing lots in Newcrest now,
Try making sure that One Drive isn't making a backup copy of the Sims 4 folder. It may be causing issues if it is trying to update backup files of the sims 4 folder.

I had to unlink my One Drive account because it made a backup folder of my Sims 3 and 4 folders causing my laptop to slow down.

Hello
Other simmers have had issues with One Drive.

That's good to know that I wasn't the only one who had an issue with One Drive.

You can exclude One Drive from synching with your sims 3 and 4 folder, but according to this article, it then removes the folder from your pc.

If you would like to remove One Drive from synching the sims 3 and 4 folders, make a backup copy of the folders beforehand, then test to see if they are removed after choosing the exclusion setting. If they are removed, then put copies of your back up copies back into documents after choosing the settings.
